The 20th anniversary celebration offered SCD the opportunity to renew its image and reconfirm its commitment towards Chilean music. A highlight of the event was the presentation of the “Fundamental Figure in Chilean Music 2007” medal to internationally renowned musician Lucho Gatica by President Bachelet.
“SCD has done so much for Chilean music, for the culture of our country, and for the promotion of our songwriters and performers,” commented Bachelet.
